I have to apologize. I didn't see this update in my e-mail inbox last night, so it should have been up sooner.

On Aaron Rodgers

[49ersfan]

I was screaming at my radio (yes, I'm that old fashion) when I heard we picked Smith. I kept saying Smith would bust and Edwards was the right pick. But noooo, the 49ers had to fall in love with that idiotic Alex Smith.

[Matt McGuire]

I wouldn't say Braylon would be the right pick cuz he wasn't the dynamic WR you should take #1 overall...if you aren't Calvin Johnson you shouldn't be takent #1 as a WR.

Remember, he was looking like a bust his first two years in the league but he finally stayed healthy last year and his career looks promising now.

Even when he was sucking, Smith wasn't doing much better.

Braylon Edwards was a monster this year. If you re-draft, you take him before Alex Smith without hesitating.

But that's a moot point b/c the obvious pick is Mike Williams.

Humor. Mike Williams is one of the worst football players of all time.

Which one? There are two that come to mind that fit that description.

The receiver was the one I was thinking of.

[Dumb Azz Kracka]

I think he was confused....somebody must have told him he was drafted as a TE, so he put on like 20 or 80 lbs.

Honestly, I was really high on Mike Williams. When Tampa picked Caddy over MW I was disappointed. I liked him a lot as a sophomore at USC, but I didn't have access to his combine interviews where I guess teams didn't like his attitude/love for the game. Everything I read about the kid was how hard he worked for the combine and how great of a work ethic he had. I thought he was going to be an exceptional player in this league.

I think his busting comes down to he just doesn't really love the game. In it for the money...and while there is nothing wrong with that if you don't give your career a 100% effort you won't be much in this league, which is why his career has gone the way it has gone.

Good god Matt, that sucks. I thought he was a bum, anyone can put up good numbers at USC.

[Matt McGuire]

It wasn't about numbers...it never really is unless the #s are bad (Darrius Heyward-Bey last year for instance). I liked his talent. I thought he was athletic on jump balls, had great hands, and was a prototypical WCO possession receiver...I remember calling him a more athletic/stronger Keyshawn Johnson.

I have to say I was high on Mike Williams too.
